This morning Daughter Peg and I went out to feed the animals. We currently have 4 Alpaca in one field and 3 others in the neignbouring one. The chickens were clambering on top of each other whilst our home grown cock (Wiggy-Guess why!) was stood atop the henhouse shouting with all his might. He is the smallest of our birds; but definately the loudest!
The goats standing on their hind legs leaning over the gate to welcome us!
The pigs-Hamsterdam, Jamaica & Lucia were trotting around their newly furrowed field, drinking from the shelll shaped paddling pool.
Whilst out we spotted our neighboours kittens-boy & girl. Pegs decided to entice them by waving branches, and swaying them about. They took some convincing. Whilst she was kitten whispering I collected fallen logs and twigs on our giant tree stump.
Luckily I had my camera with me and managed to take 160 photos in the space of 1 hour!
On return to the house Pegs had been (unbeknown to me) collecting giant fir cones, which she had squirreled away on the front door step! She wants to decorate them-I am thinking of spraying them in bright Spring colours.
We filled up the bird feeders and came in for an indoor picnic lunch.
I had left the lounge windows slightly open and the kitten boy, being daring threw himself up and over (high jump style) into the lounge! He was quickly removed amid cooing from Pegs! (Much heavier than I thought he'd be)
Daughter Peg is currently sat practising piano ready for her lesson tomorrow... I meanwhile am supposed to be upstairs tidying ;)
Enjoy the rest of your day x
